Wheelbarrow01:
At this stage I will say it is owned and run by Bupa.
NonprayingMantis:Athlonite:NonprayingMantis: So if, for example, I go overseas for a while it is illegal for my wife, even with my permission, to open mail even if I specifically request that she do it. Clearly that is not the case, (or my wife should be in prison right now) so clearly it must be legal to open someone's mail wit heir permission.
Idiot
unfair, and also against the FUD to insult other members like thisyou've given permission for your wife to open your mail the law in that case ceases to be applicable as she now has reasonable excuse.
that is exactly my point. the other guy was arguing that it is impossible to give permission. Clearly this is not the case.The rest home must gain written/verbal permission from each resident/POA on an case by case basis,
they can not use an T&C in a contract to generalise such a practice and as the OP has already stated that there is nothing in the contract that states anything about opening residents mail they have broken the law plain and simple
if you have given written permission then the contract with the rest home can be exactly that. ideally they wouldn't bury it within the small print, but it is still a contract where you give permission - that is what a contract is.
(I realise we know now that it is not in this contract, but we didn't at first, which is why it was brought up, and so I am talking about hypothetically)
